God doesn't but politicians do.!

Secularism is a menace used to create a divide within our democracy. It has become a battelfield for political manipulation and for injecting communalism into the community that left to itself has always remained in harmony. Again using label of minority & majority is a sheer political strategy for garnering vote and engineering discord and disharmony among the people.

The upheavals of communal riots and the carnage it lives behind are the toll tax that the common man pays for up keeping the political systems of our democracy that thrive on a divide & rule policy.

The plight, anguish and misery of riot victims and their family members are kept alive for decades in the form of judicial inquires. These inquires seldom probe the truth, yet pretend to give hope for punishing the real perpetrators of the carnage. Be it 1984 anti- Sikh riots in Delhi, be it Godhra train burning or be it Gujrat riots of 2002, no truth has ever emerged inspite of long drawn judiciary process and high level governmental probes. This is so because evidences and witnesses that are presented are based on political climate and political clout therefore the truth never unfolds. It remains buried under human debris that these riots live behind.

The supreme court has passed an order today turning down the allegation of inaction of the CM to contain the year 2002 Gujarat riots.This is a shot in the arm for Chief Ministers of all states. It can be seen as the mantra that can absolve the chief Ministers from the responsibility of containing riots in their states and give them the freedom to 'fiddle on the roof' while their cities burn.

We can blame God for all the natural calamities but we can never nail the politicians for their heinous crime against humanity because God doesn't but politicians do play GOD and in Gujarat Modi is"God"...

Delhiites have turned   indifferent to the " Toxic Air" that they breath  They have stopped bothering about the "smoke screen " that is keeping away   "Sun light"  from giving them the ray of "HOPE"  to keep their lungs "Sun Shined" . Like "AGE"  for them now  even the  AQI (Air Quality Index) has become a sheer number .They have long since stopped reacting to the AQI  shooting up. They have lost their "JOSH"" to protest for their fundamental right to breath. Delhi is the very seat of the duly elected "POWER".  of  World's largest Democracy  The "custodian" of this Democracy reside here  at   "7 LOK KALYAN"  but remain hardly visible in and around the city This  "custodian"  continues to remain the very "Most"  'Frequent Flier' of our Democracy and  the only  'STAR '  campaigner for the political party that he comes from.    Getting re-elected...

   When you already  know a little about the  book it does create an  interest “Blessed Curse” was just that.  This book is about an  Indian middle class household  that is holding together three generations in generous harmony with all those ifs and buts about the generation gaps  The book undoubtedly is  an inspirational read  especially at a  time when the concept of   “nuclear households", remains a widely spread idea among the Millennials  It recalibrates your mind to question , debate ,accept and  celebrate every generation’s point of view  This book is the story of Jagdamba Prasad & his wife Pushpa Devi living with their son, daughter in law and grandchildren in one of the colonies of East Delhi’. The author in this book takes the reader through good, bad and ugly about each generation. The beauty is, it does not come as a bout of episodes but as “cosy chats” between the members of the family...
